Brazilian sertaneja singer Lauana Prado recorded a short audiovisual video featuring a song written for her unborn son [1].
The release highlights the intersection of personal motherhood and professional artistry for the 37-year-old singer [2]. By sharing the intimate process of songwriting during pregnancy, Prado connects her public persona with a private family milestone.
Prado shared the video via Globo’s g1 YouTube channel [1]. In the recording, she performs a piece titled "Nascendo do meu coração," which translates to "Born from my heart" [3]. The singer used the medium to celebrate the upcoming birth of her first child and to express her feelings regarding the transition into motherhood [3].
Reports regarding the timing of the recording vary. Some sources indicate the singer was six months pregnant during the interview, while others state she was eight months pregnant [2, 4]. The audiovisual project was produced while Prado was in the later stages of her pregnancy, a period during which she also managed her professional commitments before entering maternity leave [2].
Prado said that she has been prolific in her writing during this time. "Eu tenho feito muitas músicas," she said [3].
The sertaneja genre, a staple of Brazilian music, often emphasizes themes of love, longing, and family. By dedicating a song to her son, Prado aligns her current life stage with the emotional core of her musical style. The video serves as both a personal keepsake and a promotional tool as she prepares for her hiatus from the stage [2].
“"Nascendo do meu coração"”
